Ancient Mammoth Ivory,我最近定了几个,据说效果比牛骨或者骆驼骨好很多。 Randy Reynolds吉他就采用这种材料。 这是他的说明: normally use extinct Mammoth Ivory for the Nut and Saddle. In spite of the extra cost, I feel that Ivory lends a bit smoother sound than bone with no loss in volume. I suspect this is because it is more flexible than bone. Keep in mind that this is not the banned Elephant Ivory, my supply has been collected from finds left over from Scrimshaw and jewelry artists. I do work in bone as well and I can use that if you prefer. The saddle and nut are hand lapped to fit their respective slots with a precise slip tolerance. The guitar is intonated with the method developed by Gregory Byers. 200511251551856555.jpg 200511251553067625.jpg 200511251554117703.jpg 200511251555996497.jpg

据我感觉,猛犸古象牙下弦枕其价值主要体现在“物以稀为贵”这个经济规律上,与牛骨、驼骨比较,声音效果应该不会有什么差别。

这是另一位使用猛犸象牙的制作家所写的: I recently tried fossilized mammoth ivory for the nut and saddle on my instruments, and I now offer it as a standard feature. Compared to the bleached bone that I used formerly, mammoth ivory gives a noticeably smoother, creamier sound, something I attribute to the density (and perhaps homogeneity) of the material. Currently I purchase ivory from a supplier in Indiana, who travels to Siberia to purchase tusks found in the permafrost. Apparently the tusks are 10,000 years old or more. Mammoth tusks are also found in similar locations in the Yukon. Unlike elephant ivory, mammoth ivory is readily available, and purchasing it doesn’t involve one in the black market.

草译如下: 我最近采用猛犸象化石的牙齿作为上下琴枕材料,并将其作为标准配置以供选择。与我过去常用的骨片相比,猛犸象牙让声音明显地变得更为细腻,如脂般温润。我想这大概是因为其密度及质地的缘故。 目前我从印地安那州的供应商那进货,这些永冻地带发现的东西是他到西伯利亚去买的。很明显这些獠牙有着10000年以上的历史。猛犸象牙在育空(位于加拿大)的某些相似情况的地区也有发现。与普通象牙不同,猛犸象牙很好买,你根本不用到黑市去。

我通常用已灭绝的猛犸象牙作为上下琴枕的材料。尽管费用高些,但我觉得猛犸的比骨片的声音更光滑细腻些,同时音量却丝毫无损。我猜是它的弹性要比骨片好。注意了,这可不是现在被禁止交易的象牙哦,我是从雕刻家及珠宝匠那弄到些他们多出来的。我照样提供骨片,如果你喜欢它的话我就按你的要求。上下琴枕将以手工打磨与枕槽的尺寸相吻合,并留出细微空间方便滑动。这主意是Gregory Byers先想出来了。

应该发明一种塑料来代替~ 这样化工厂又可以发横财了~

可惜要自己打磨太辛苦了,这真是个细活啊。
